I work in public education. That’s a pretty innocuous statement compared to some of the shit I’ve heard. Some teachers get so complacent in their lessons that they forget to apply it in their critical-thinking. Then, they have some crazy logical lapse, say something ridiculous out loud, and then some other kid from that class repeats that same shit to their own students when they grow up. These are mistakes that could easily be rectified with an apology or deliberate correction, but teachers are pushed so hard to prioritize being an authority figure that they sometimes forget to just be a teacher.

I’m going to pull a no true Scotsman, no good teacher would say that.
yhea, there are teachers that lose it a bit.
